(Taken by Annie... read on)
First off my ultrasound went really well, but I had to wait till Monday to go over the results because I got it done at a separate facility & every time I asked the tech a question she said "I can't really tell you that it has to be reviewed first." Anyways, its so funny how BIG that baby gets from 20 to 36 weeks. Back then we could see his whole body on the screen and now its just one part at a time.
Well it's no surprise my Asher is a big boy... measuring approximately 8 pounds already. (Josh & I were both really big babies) & I am actually measuring around 38 weeks but they stick with the original due date all the same. Basically he can come from any time now to a few weeks. I told him he has to stay in until after this Saturday because I will be having my Virginia baby shower! And I'm pretty excited.
This week a good friend of mine named Kaylah did our maternity shoot and I think the pictures will be all edited by the end of the week. I am realllllly excited to see them!!! We had a lot of fun taking them. Kaylah is really awesome and has a natural eye for beauty... she also rocks a paintbrush. This week I will take a picture of a recent painting we purchased from her because it's amazing.
Before those, though, my good friend Annie (who goes by Anna too), who is an AMAZING photographer, had a concept idea for a picture which she asked me to pose for. Of course I said yes, not only is she seriously...seriously talented, but she is a dear friend to my heart. (She is the one who took our engagement photos which make up my current header and blog buttons).
I almost hated adding my "36 weeks" to this picture because it is so lovely, but I am running out of week... so here is her concept piece with my added text (I like it much better without it though) & to clarify for my Momma, because she asked, I was wearing a skirt and tank top :) This is my first and probably only really "belly" picture... which is special to me because I want to remember my belly as it is in the moment of life.

So thanks Annie, you are awesome & I can't wait till you visit again!
